Grammar
Florist's, Pharmacist's.
If I were writing:
'I went into the florist's.'
Or
'I went to the pharmacist's.'
Implying that I went into their stores/shops, would it be correct to use an apostrophe?

The apostrophe is correct, but for the sake of appearance, I would delete the possessive altogether. I went to the florist/pharmacist.
